Power And Communication Line And Related Structures Construction federal obligations in Alabama (NAICS 237130)

What the power and communication line construction–Alabama join is

NAICS 237130 and place-of-performance state AL meet on this tie. $159,935,368 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for power and communication line construction, not Alabama’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 237130 is power and communication line and related structures construction, not highway construction (237310) and not Alabama’s 336414 missile join.

10 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $159,935,368 by 10 yields about $15,993,537 per award on average. The join does not rank Alabama against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

NAICS 237130 as the industry side

USAspending labels NAICS 237130 as Power And Communication Line And Related Structures Construction. Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction is a utility-construction code. Highway work is 237310. The packet does not name lines, substations, or primes. Sharing a state with 336414 and 336419 does not merge line construction with missiles. The industry hub for NAICS 237130 does not require Alabama geography; only this overlay applies both filters.

A second power and communication line construction join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Alabama’s 237130 figure as a synonym for every power and communication line construction award in the catalog. 237130 is power and communication line and related structures construction, not highway construction (237310) and not Alabama’s 336414 missile join. Award titles on the NAICS 237130 page are the place to see what a given line bought.

Place of performance in Alabama

Alabama on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Alabama residents. Alabama POP is statewide, not a Huntsville-only overlay. Place of performance can list AL while later work occurs in Georgia or Mississippi; those states are not inside this total unless also coded AL. Awards can list AL while later performance occurs elsewhere.

The state hub for Alabama shows how NAICS 237130 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split metros, counties, or congressional districts.

Award count, mean, and obligations

10 awards is the sparsest action count on this slice. A few large construction vehicles can dominate the mean. The mean is not a typical mile-of-line price and not a unique-project census. Award count 10 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Alabama industries list and the NAICS 237130 hub.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $159,935,368 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $159,935,368 as cash already spent in Alabama over-reads the field.

What this pair does not prove

A concentrated line-construction total is not a reliability score and not a comment on grid quality. It is obligations on 237130 × AL. Outlays are not in the packet. Keep $159,935,368 labeled as NAICS 237130 obligations with Alabama place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations.

A later ingest can restate $159,935,368 without changing the join key of NAICS 237130 and AL. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Open Alabama federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 237130 for the industry hub, Alabama industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs. Correlation is not causation.
